In Memory of Timothy Murray

A guest post from Timothy's wife

My name is Anita Sliger Murray, class of 1976. I was married to Timothy E. Murray

for 20 years. We dated all through high school. We grew up on Vanderburgh St.

Tim passed away at home in his sleep in October 1997. Tim left 4 children, Tim Jr.,Dan, Eric, and Melissa. Tim will always be in our hearts, it was a shock, he was only 42 years old. I have seven grandchildren.  Tim never got to enjoy them. Tim was a funny, and joking guy. Tim and his family were involved with the East Gary Little League many years ago. Tim's  grandparents owned the Old Lake Tavern for many years. Tim graduated with the class of 1973. I guess I would like to see maybe a prayer service for all that have passed on from the class of 1973.

Thank You, Anita Murray and Family of Timothy E. Murray
